Silver City, NM – September 6, 2023 – Community Partnership for Children (CPC) calls on all Grant County residents to help color the future bright for our community’s children! CPC will host their September Spectac-Color Fun Run fundraiser on Saturday, September 16, 2023, from 10 AM to 3 PM at Bataan Memorial Park, Santa Clara.

The color run proceeds will ensure that all children in our community have access to quality and affordable early education and care.  


A color run is a great way for families to get active and have fun together.
